A collection of four PowerPoint presentations which I have used with my 8+ class. They cover creative writing. Writing interesting characters; Improving sentences; Creating atmosphere / tension; Structuring a story;

This is a twelve page pack I wrote for my 7+ and 8+ students covering the fundamentals of structuring stories for these exams. It includes a schematic for structuring stories, several short examples, a three-paragraph exemplar with annotations, a few exercises, and my mark-scheme for creative writing components at this level. I anticipate it will be most helpful for parents and tutors, or for teachers looking for an independent learning pack.

A full practice paper for the 8+ exam. Includes comprehension, composition, maths, reasoning, and a listening exam (which covers dictation, a bit of reasoning and mental maths.) Hope you find it useful!

A 200 slide presentation covering the specification points of Topic 4. I created this to support homeschool tutoring of a capable A Level candidate. With this in mind, it is a useful resource for other tutors, or for students in need of some revision. Some slides animated to simplify tricky concepts. Hope you find it useful!
